Everyday
I collect
My tears
In a bowl
I’ve fashioned
Into my
Very own
Wishing well
It’s there
In my garden
You’re welcome
To tip in a tear
Or two too
Can’t #assure
Your wishes’ll
Come true
Though
But hey ho
Sure does look pretty
When the sun sets
Over my tears
It was a black and white, (due to) low-budget movie. Outside a concvenience store with its shutter closed someone was writing something on a big sheet with black paint, and then he put ir up. It was informing the public: "I #assure you, we're open!". The rest is cinematic history and love

Want of understanding
A knowing untold
State of uncertainty
Confounded resolve
Unwillingly unable
To assure them again
The logical conclusion
Is not to depend
#assure #vss365 #poetry
your belief in me was a
windchime in a hurricane
a gentle voice with power
to #assure me i had worth
restoring faltering faith
in my fractured self
you gave me back hope
& in your light i found value
through a kindness that
carried me through storms

In a world where doubts can obscure,
We seek strength in words to #assure.
With a soft, gentle tone,
We make worries known,
And together, our hearts can endure.

Is this a dream-world, or did you find yourself lost in time, to see those etched bones on a black tarp and, in your good mind, feel more warmth than from the sun at that port?

From the #vss365 jukebox, this is Rest #Assured by the Lemonheads off the 1993 album Come On Feel the Lemonheads.

Do you love me?
He will #assure her, every time she asks.
She knows.
But still, she has to ask. Every time.
If the #warmth of a bed in the morning,
Were a drug with a pharmacists' warning,
In line folks would get,
Sweet cheeks you can bet,
Such a bliss pill would have us all swarming.

Virtuous
Or vicious
Everybody
Has a soul
‘Cept your
Little brother
If in fact
The truth be told
He just ran
A con on me…
Pernicious
Little toad
Bought photos from him
He #assured
Showed you
In the buff
Now
Stuck with dumb photos
Of you buffing dents
From stuff… 🤷♂️

Ironically
I can #assure you
The last time
I felt
Safe
Was the conversation
I had with my dad
The night before
He died
'I know what the spells says. Instead of putting them in the fire, have you tried reanimating the skull and bones with a different kind of warmth?'
'I thought it was a little late for that. If that didn't work, I'd fall to pieces even more.'

Your mouth near mine,
that slow breath at my throat—
no promises spoken,
but the heat of your hands
assures my body
you meant
to stay.

Sometimes words remind you of other words they bear no connection to. Or names.
My favourite book of poems, Crow, by Ted Hughes. Dedicated to Assia and Shura.

Dust and grime coated cobwebs
Line the ceiling, tying up legs
Booby traps for the nightmares
That haunt, grab you unaware
Goblins caught in the corners
Stopped in making their horrors
Awaiting the freedom to resume
In the silver light of the moon

I saw a picture today
that made words flow
across the page,a
passage of warmth
traced marks across
my soul.
Stone pathways in the
mist of a marsh land,
in a place far from here.
A mirror of my heart
echoing in the rain.

Authorities #assure us we're safer paying the extortionists' protection racket.
On 1 hand, we don't negotiate with terrorists. On the other, the spy government isn't negotiating with us.
They just take what they want.

CURRENT PROMPT HOST
The #vss365 host for March 16-31 is:
@darkxfer.bsky.social
Prompts will drop at 12:00 AM GMT (UTC)
Follow Prof Fox, if you haven’t already!
This blister on my soul
Exacerbated by friction
Such an agonizing condition
Now a festering infection
If the poison gets in my bloodstream
it will surely be the death of me
Amputation is my only survival option
but is life worth living soulessly?
#vss365 #poetry #poem
And so we come to the end of my run as your #vss365 host. Thank you all! The baton is being passed to @darkxfer, who will provide the prompts for March 16 - 31. Until then, we have one more #prompt for the Ides of March. I know you'll do wonderful things with #assure.
If things are supposed to change for the better, then more need to contribute to the kindness that they benefit from.

the warmth of your skin,
your heart,
your eyes,
your arms,
your e v e r y thing
entrances me
I am bound to you
with every fibre
every heartbeat
every moment
you me
you me

On frigid nights like this one, Nick traversed the city with ease — an enigmatic shadow, undetected by citizens scurrying towards #warmth. He was a wraith in a frozen wasteland.
#vss365
Instilled is the first #warmth
then the canvas rings cry at me with name calling
it's no boxing ring
it's the all-encompassing sting
of those dissolving friendships
written for a one trick pony ride
all the fantasies in the world
could never hold a beating heart
I'm not a ransom
#vss365
a little kiss of sun
as you devour me
providing warmth
letting you linger longer
and keep doing that

The #warmth of that apple pie leaving the oven made my heart leap for joy. Without even waiting for it to cool, I scoop out a slice. The best Pi Day experience I could ever have.
#vss365
It's easy to blame, and put it outside of your existence. It's easy to say it's the fault of some outside influence. It's much harder to admit that maybe you are flawed in your perception.
